KL Rahul was yet again banging on with his skills with the bat. The Karnataka-lad continued his rich vein of form as he once again took the onus upon himself to do the bulk of the scoring for his side.

Opening the innings for his team in an all-important clash, Rahul steadied the ship too but always felt short with no support from the other end.

He mustered runs at a brisk pace as in due course of time he even reached 600 runs in this season to even bag the Orange cap.

Being the mainstay of the Kings XI batting, Rahul looked decisive in his shot-making as he powered his way to a majestic 94.

This was disheartening for the youngster to see his side go down in an all-important clash.
